Celebrating Women’s History Month

This March, we celebrate Women’s History Month. The Ackerman Institute recognizes the vast contributions that women have made to the field of family therapy and mental health since the beginning of the profession. In 2019, women made up an impressive 76% of therapy professionals, and 68% of the social service occupation.

We recognize the commitment of women to the care and well-being of families and communities around the world.
